New Daybreak Group Member
It was late at night.
A furtive figure, completely concealed, silently got out of the taxi.
Not far away was the Los Angeles North Suburb Airport. He handed the taxi driver a hundred-dollar bill. "Keep the change."
As he spoke, he began to sneak toward the airport.
The driver glanced at him and said, "107 yuan, give me another seven yuan."
The masked man said in a deep, muffled voice, "... Okay."
In the cold, dark night, he felt his heart pounding because of extreme tension.
However, before he could take two steps, he suddenly noticed a familiar face blocking his way.
The masked man turned to run, but found that more than a dozen students had emerged from the woods behind him.
He ran to the left, and more than ten students emerged from the green belt, staring at him expressionlessly.
Ambush from all sides!
The masked man was breathing heavily.
"Jiang Yichen, are you in such a hurry to leave Luo City?" Nangong Yuanyu asked with a smile. "Why didn't you let us see you off when you left without saying goodbye in the wilderness last time?"
The masked man sighed, pulling down his high-wrapped scarf. "How about I compensate you for the cost of your car? Three times the price is fine too. You can also calculate the value of the items in the car; I can compensate for anything."
Nangong Yuanyu laughed and said, "Of course we know you're rich. After all, top celebrities earn more money than we can imagine. But after you killed Qing Zhong, you deliberately hid in our convoy, using the Freemasons as a shield. Shouldn't we settle this score?"
Jiang Yichen was stunned for a moment. Although he had foreseen the danger and left, he did not expect that the Freemasons would know so much about it.
"How did you know?" Jiang Yichen asked, puzzled.
"You don't need to worry about that," Qi Duo walked up to him. "We have no grudge against each other, why are you using us like this?"
After the Freemasons return tonight, their first task will be to search for Jiang Yichen's whereabouts.
Although they are just a newly established organization, they are being used and ridiculed at will. If there is no explanation, their hearts will not be united.
Jiang Yichen asked in confusion, "How exactly did you track my whereabouts?"
Nangong Yuanyu honestly said, "We spent 200 yuan to buy it from a fan site admin, who knows the celebrity's flight information."
Jiang Yichen: "???"
He never imagined that the way he found him would be so simple and unpretentious.
It turns out that those fan site admins actually have this kind of ability!
Looking at the more than twenty Freemasons surrounding him, Jiang Yichen said earnestly, "It was wrong of me to take advantage of you. How about this, I'll transfer the money to you right now."
Nangong Yuanyu looked at Qi Duo: "Taking the money will provide the Freemasons with some operating funds for the Outer World."
However, at this moment, Jiang Yichen said, "Did Hu Xiaoniu tell you about my situation?"
Nangong Yuanyu shook her head. "No."
"It's definitely him," Jiang Yichen said seriously, "But everyone, please don't be used by him. This is one of Bai Zhou's core members. You know Bai Zhou, right?"
"Daytime?" Nangong Yuanyu and the others exchanged glances.
Jiang Yichen raised an eyebrow. "You guys don't even know Bai Zhou? Well, that's true. Although they've done a lot, their reputation isn't widespread outside. Only a few high-level group members like He Xiaoxiao know about them. Here's the thing, let me tell you what Bai Zhou has done..."
As Jiang Yichen recounted his story, Nangong Yuanyu and the others grew increasingly astonished.
It was because they had always thought that the Freemasons were already among the best in the student organizations, but compared to what the daytime had done, it seemed like nothing at all.
Liu Dezhu, who was once very famous, was just an ordinary member of Bai Zhou.
The kidnapping case at Laojun Mountain, the sniper shooting incident on Xingshu Road, the battle at Weiyang Lake in Xiancheng, the Kamishiro, and the reverse Transmigration Plan at Kashima.
None of these things are things that students like them can participate in!
Jiang Yichen said in a low voice, "The money has already been paid, and such important information was passed on to you. Can we just call it even?"
Nangong Yuanyu pondered for a moment, "Alright, from now on you and the Freemasons will have no enmity and will keep to your own business."
Jiang Yichen breathed a sigh of relief and ran towards the airport, afraid that if he was too slow, the Freemasons would change their minds again.
In fact, he was overthinking it. The Freemasons are still a student organization, not a violent one, and they wouldn't do anything to him.
Villa No. 12, Guobao Garden.
In Qing Chen's bedroom.
"Brother Chen, are you sure we don't need to go to City No. 10 with you?" Nan Gengchen asked. "Everyone here is a cultivator now, and things are looking up on Luo Wanyai's side, so we can definitely help out."
"No need," Qing Chen said calmly. "It's actually more convenient for me to move around alone."
"Are you worried that we'll be in danger?" Nan Gengchen asked.
In Nan Gengchen's eyes, the other members of Bai Zhou were actually very lucky.
Because Qing Chen shouldered most of the pressure alone, they were able to relax so much.
However, as a friend, Nan Gengchen hoped he could help share the burden, and for that reason, he was willing to not go to City No. 7 with Li Yinuo.
Nan Gengchen lowered his head. "Brother Chen, although we are still weak, no, we have always been weak. When we were in school, we copied your test papers and homework, and asked you about anything we didn't understand. I always felt that nothing mattered because you were there for me. But in the past, I could take your protection for granted, but I can't anymore, because now you are facing real danger."
Nan Gengchen looked up at Qing Chen: "If there is really danger, let us help you too, after all, we are all members of the organization."
Qing Chen was silent for a moment, then smiled and said, "If there's anything I can't handle, I'll have you all gather in City No. 10. But before that, you need to focus on your cultivation. By the way, how's your cultivation progressing?"
Nan Gengchen thought for a moment and said, "I feel that I will be able to complete the cultivation of the second Qi Meridian soon."
After completing the Great Circulation of Qi in the Zhunti Method, one must also cultivate the sixteen meridians of the body, advancing to the next level after cultivating eight meridians each time.
In other words, Nan Gengchen can complete the cultivation of two Qi meridians with Li Yinuo in a week, advance one level in a month, and ultimately advance to C-Class in two months.
To reach B-Class, one needs to achieve a harmonious integration of the subtle energy points and the energy channels.
Qing Chen silently observed Nan Gengchen.
Each time a gene warrior advances to a new level, a one-month interval is required, and the entire process will take five months.
The dual cultivation of the Zhunti Method is actually faster than the improvement speed of gene warriors?!
Is the Zhunti Method more powerful, or are Nan Gengchen and Li Yinuo more powerful?
Nan Gengchen's expression was somewhat unnatural. "Brother Chen, the way you're looking at me makes me a little scared..."
Just then, Qing Chen glanced down at his arm and was shocked to discover, "This time the countdown is two days!"
It's 2 a. m., and the countdown on my arm is 46:00:00.
Having traveled through time countless times, all the Time Walker believed that the time travel and return intervals had become a fixed seven days.
As a result, after returning to work, people no longer check their arms immediately.
Qing Chen frowned in thought, wondering what was causing this time interval to change.
Does this mean another large number of players with "public beta access" are about to appear? Or is the passage between the two parallel worlds simply not very stable?
No one can be sure what's going on, but it means that if they have something to deal with in the Outer World, they have to do it as soon as possible.
Qing Chen told Nan Gengchen to go back to his room, then said to his phone, "Yi, please send an invitation to Yang Yang's phone number and add her to the daytime group."
One: "One hundred yuan."
Qing Chen: "... We're friends!"
One: "You won't even give me a hundred yuan, and you're talking to me about friendship?!"
Qing Chen sighed, "Fine, one hundred yuan."
Five minutes later, a message suddenly appeared in the group chat.
A user named "Boss's Fan" joined the group chat. She is not friends with any of the other group members. Please beware of scams.
Qing Chen was completely dumbfounded. Leaving aside how bizarre Yang Yang's ID was, the key question was why there was an anti-fraud warning in the internal group chat?!
Qing Chen messaged Yang Yang privately. "Change your ID..."
Yang Yang immediately replied, "Can't I even tell the truth?"
Qing Chen: "Is that the truth?"
Yang Yang: "How can you talk to your fans like that? Show some respect!"
Qing Chen: "... That's enough."
Yang Yang: "Haha, help me hide my identity, I think it's quite fun to hide my identity in the group."
In the background of the group chat interface, another message appears: "The boss's fan" changed his ID to "Ordinary Little Genius".
Qing Chen sighed inwardly. There were hardly any legitimate IDs in this group: "Millionaire," "Little Rich Girl," "Little Genius," "Brave Bull Bull," and "Not Afraid of Difficulties."
At that moment, Li Tongyun, who was hiding upstairs, sent a message: "Welcome, Little Genius, to Daylight!"
Ice Eye: "Welcome!"
Liu Dezhu: "Sprinkle confetti!"
The atmosphere suddenly became lively, until...
Monopoly: "Please send a red envelope to complete the group joining process, thank you."
Qing Chen was both amused and exasperated, not knowing why, but it seemed like the Outer World Division Yi was obsessed with money.
Boss: "This is a long-time member of our group, but he hasn't joined the group before for some reason."
Ordinary Little Genius: "Yes, the boss forgot to add me to the group."
Boss. "..."
Liu Dezhu: "By the way, who is this Ordinary Little Genius? Have we met them before? Are they a boy or a girl?"
Ordinary Little Genius: "Boy."
The Little Rich Girl: "Is he handsome?"
Ordinary Little Genius: "Not bad, people call him the Shanghai Daniel Wu."
Upon hearing that she was also from Haicheng, Hu Xiaoniu immediately realized that if it wasn't Yang Yang, then who else could it be?
Seeing that Yang Yang was planning to cause trouble in the group, Qing Chen quickly got down to business.
Boss: "Little Cow, have the Freemasons contacted you?"
Brave Bull Bull: "I contacted them, and they called to say they wanted to visit, but I haven't agreed yet. Boss, they seem to have found out about Bai Zhou's situation from somewhere and asked me about it, but I haven't replied."
Qing Chen thought for a moment and replied using the boss's account, "Agree, have them come directly to the villa, you go find Luo Wanyai, we'll put on a show."
Thanks to JasonK0421, Plickes, swalle, and Gensan for becoming new allies of this book. The boss is generous and never misses a stop on the bus!
There will be another chapter at 11 PM.
